SONG OF THE INCARNATION
Lyrics
In the silence of the night-time hours
God incarnate touches earth
The prophecies of ancient days foretold
Fulfilled for us, in human form
Tender is the shoot of Jesse’s line
Shining brighter than the sun
He comes unarmed, against the darkest powers
The word made flesh, Immanuel
Dark and cold, no welcome was there found
For the Lord of all the earth
This gift of love, was broken, turned aside
Rejected by our foolish hearts
Rejected by our foolish hearts
